Painter in Mount Hutton, near Lake Macquarie Fair
Around Lake Macquarie Fair, Mount Hutton, Windale and Tingira Heights are mostly brick homes from the 1970s and 80s.
The homes around Lake Macquarie Fair
The brick on these homes rarely needs paint, but the timber around it does: eaves, fascias and window frames dry out, crack and peel in the sun. They can be quoted on their own, without painting the whole house.
From Edgeworth it's about 20 minutes, round through Warners Bay.
Eave linings on homes built before 1990 can be asbestos cement sheet, so they are cleaned and sealed, never sanded. See SafeWork NSW's asbestos guidance.
Inside
Inside, a lot of these homes still have their original doors and trims, with years of marks on them. They are sanded, filled and undercoated so the new colour sits flat. Rentals are best done between tenants, when the house is empty.
